-ENGLISH VERSION-I really had a great time on my latest vacations in San Francisco and LA. During those 9 days I think we did a lot and that's why I would like to share some highlights that you may use as a guide if you would like.

-SAN FRANCISCO-

Bike ride: This is something you should consider on your next trip to San Francisco. In 4 hours we had time to go all the way from Fisherman's wharf to the other side of the Golden Gate, we even had time to make stops in some sights.Union Square: We choose to stay in that area, very nice and close from everything.Clam Chowder: No one should leave San Francisco without trying it.Chinatown: Probably the largest chinese community I've ever seen.SFMoMA: I highly recommend this place. Time flies here.Cable car ride: Try at least once to take a ride on this iconic way of transportation.Palace of fine arts: A beautiful structure built in 1915 in the middle of a nice and quiet park.Alcatraz: Former US military prison. Enjoy a great view of the bay from here.Lombard Street: The crookedest (most winding) street in the world. Alamo Square/Painted ladies: This park in located on a hill that brings a nice view of the city. In from of it you can find the famous victorian style houses.City Hall: The structure's dome is the fifth largest in the world.

-LA-

Universal Studios: It's a whole day experience and it's so worth it. Black Friday: We went to Camarillo CA, the clue is to get there on Thursday night because most of the stores opens at 9 pm. If you plan to go after 10 pm, forget, it will be a total caos.Glandele: We discovered this area while looking for a restaurant without knowing there's a cool place called Americana at Brand with a lot of shops and a small plaza with fountains pretty cozy. It was decorated with a lot of lights and christmas ornaments.Santa Monica: We walked the pedestrian-only third street promenade with a lot of restaurants and shops. Then we went to watch the sunset on the Ocean Ave.Downtown LA: Take a look at The Disney Concert Hall (by Frank Gehry) and then cross the street to visit MOCA. If you are going on 2014 don't miss the new space for contemporary art: The Broad.

Good friends makes traveling something unforgettable. Thanks Gaby and Emmanuel for all the great moments.
